It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

This is Arlana posting this week from Snowy Utah. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas here. I thought I would show you a little Christmas from my house. I love to design all kinds of crafts. This is my snowman tree in the hall of my house. I need to give a big thanks to my son, Colton, for decorating my tree. I hope it is beginning to look a lot like Christmas at your house too. Christmas is one of my favorite times of year.

Just a little joy from my house to yours. Hope you have a very Merry Christmas.

I want to say a Big Thank You to all my dedicated followers. The ones who wished me Happy Birthday and all the ones who love my Sketches. It makes my day when I read your SWEET comments.

Good morning, and Sweet Sketch Wednesdayfrom Arizona..... Winter hasn't quit caught up with us here in the high desert. I didn't even need a jacket today. But, a week ago we were freezing to death. That is probably why I have been sick twice this past month. Our weather here isn't like it is in Phoenix. We actually have four seasons. Some winters are harder than others. But, for the most part, we don't get alot of snow. However, I have been here when we had over a foot of snow. I certainly hope we will get some this year.

Ok, Let's not wait a moment longer......

Well, just one moment.......I have a little something to share with you.

It was just Arlana's Birthday!!! So, everyone wish her a great big birthday wish!!!
